These rods have a cello wrap gloss finish but can be sanded smooth.
To cut carbon fiber we suggest a saw similar to a tile cutting saw with a diamond abrasive wheel. The use of water while cutting will keep the material cool as well as keep dust particles to a minimum. If you do not have a tile cutting saw then a Dremel motor with an abrasive cutting wheel will offer a fairly clean cut. You can also use a fine-toothed hacksaw as a final (but not ideal) option. Tape around area to be cut to prevent splintering or separation of carbon fibers. Wear eye protection and dust mask.
